Media touting tonight as The Shedaur Show


Recommended Posts

I thought Shedeur looked better than expected and hope he takes the QB1 spot in Cleveland...

...but man, the amount of glazing he is getting for scoring on 2 of 6 drives (one of them starting from the Carolina 10) against what was a historically bad defense is a bit goofy.

You of all people talking about someone else glazing a young QB based on a small sample size.

He struggled against starters? He got the offense to the Panthers 21, where Stefanski in his infinite wisdom went into an empty set, where Wonnum, I believe, made it into the backfield virtually untouched in about 0.62 seconds. 

The first drive should have been extended but Johnson missed a catch and I believe their tight end, or slot receiver, didn't get the correct depth on a hitch. 

I don't think he struggled against any of the Panthers defense if I'm being honest. And if that's what his struggling looks like, then trade for him now. I've seen struggle the past two years, that wasn't it. 

3/7 for 26 yards against the starters

Why are you so focused on a Browns QB anyways?

You've spent weeks badmouthing our rookie WR who had yet to play a down in an NFL game then when he finally did and looked good you went completely silent. Odd.

Yeah, Sanders had a very nice debut preseason performance but the folks acting like he's arrived based on that performance are getting way out ahead of themselves.

The media is going to overreact to his play because of his name.  He did play solid against our backups.  Stayed calm in the pocket and made some nice passes.  I still think he can be a solid QB in this league, but it's just hard for me to dig too much into preseason.  I'd consider putting him behind Flacco if I were the Browns and once they get eliminated playing him to see what they have in him.

That'd be my plan. Figure out which one of your rookie QBs has the most upside/potential and throw him out there once the season is basically over.

Best bet imo. Last thing they want to do is have to protect Shedeur while still having to build the team. Let Flacco guide the ship and then give Shedeur the keys once they're eliminated.

Of course, they could always do the Huddle-preferred method of forcing him into action because his last name is Sanders and that means he has to play hero ball. 🙃

Lol...hardly any rookie is gonna get playing time against starters in the pre season. So I guess there is nothing to evaluate for respective teams right?  Makes sense i guess. Lol

I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.

    • As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.
    • He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.
    • Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
